I have seen way too many anarchists that support NATO, claiming that it’s just a defensive alliance, how bad the USSR supposedly was, how bad Hamas is, or how the kidnapper nazi government of Ukraine is in the right to be joining the most prolific invader in the world to plunder Africa.
Also, let’s not forget that it’s open knowledge now that NATO has been using anarchist groups to spread propaganda.
That’s been my general experience too. It’s definitely not all of them, but I’ve met too many who haven’t sat down to do any reading yet, and as such still align with 99% of their liberal indoctrination, imperialism included.

This is just patently false, unless you’re talking about ancaps which are disavowed by all actual anarchists.
